FLY ME TO THE MOON [+] serious ballot by larrynelmira ACTIVE Wed Mar 26, 08 - Thu Mar 26, 09 Let me sing among those stars The ultimate in peaceful final resting places may now be within reach as a US company is offering a burial service on the Moon. Texas-based Celestis has already sent the remains of 100 people into Earth orbit, but now claims it will drop ashes on to the lunar surface. The company says it is negotiating with commercial firms who are planning missions to the Moon. These may occur in the next two or three years and the ashes would be carried on board as cargo. The first person to be laid to rest using this service will be Mareta West, the geologist who picked the site for the 1969 Apollo 11 Moon landing. She died in 1998. Celestis is paying for West's final trip, but will offer the service to the public for a $12,500 fee. Celestis president Chan Tysor said this is "not completely out of line with what people might spend on a traditional funeral". What's your opinion on this service and would you want your final resting place to be on the moon? Sure why not No, keep my remains on Earth Other Could be problematic Ballot #124864 : SEE RESULTS Comment: show your vote with comment?
